REPOST: There is something about this gesture that makes me blackout. I think it’s because I, like many #veryasian folks, started getting this in kindergarten. I know it’s just a gesture, but I truly had a visceral reaction to this.

Yes. It's more than a harmless gesture. It encapsulates xenophobia, racism, demeaning stereotypes, and a long history of anti-Asian hate. Your visceral reaction is understandable. I felt it, too.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean that. I was frustrated at another issue. I’m not racist. All my friends would tell you I’m not racist. Including my friend Amy who is Korean or Vietnamese or something.” — the forthcoming apology.

do you think she even knows she’s driving an Asian car?

Well, someone is going to be identified and spend the new year unemployed.

One of those very satisfying times when you head over to TikTok and she’s already been identified:

"What's Wrong?" is what she says 4 times... It's so strange - that gesture is never something I woujld ever consider ever doing... it's strange how some people have that built into them... Says alot more about them than anything...

Can’t fix stupid.

That literally is NOT “just a gesture”. That is basically racist hate speech.

I hope she's identified and gets the justice she deserves.

I am a Black American 64 y/o woman, & I have been called many names by young & old white women. It's simply obvious who has had home training & who hasn't!

🎙️ This week on Getting There, I sit down with @bonnie_blue_xox 💥 Before the comments roll in, let me remind you—this podcast is all about perspective. It’s about understanding people’s journeys and their unique versions of “getting there,” wherever there may be. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I had heard Bonnie’s story. I had so many questions and I wanted to speak to her first hand! I was curious to know, what on earth would drive a beautiful young girl to sleep with A THOUSAND MEN 💔 For me I felt like we have lost all so much that once was sacred. ⚡️Getting There
